Child Abuse at School

100% of our child abuse claims are made on a No Win No Fee basis which means that you do not have to worry about any financial risk at all as if your abuse compensation claim is unsuccessful it will not cost you anything.

Children at school should look up to and respect their teachers and accept that the teacher is in the position of authority and generally, should be obeyed.  In return, teachers are placed in the important position of being trusted with the childrens’ education and therefore have a significant duty of care to ensure that the children they teach and look after are happy in the knowledge that they are in a safe and supportive environment.

If a teacher breaches that duty and that trust and sexually or physically abuses a child, it is likely to have a massively detrimental effect on the child’s physical and psychological progress and development.

If you have been the victim of child abuse at school we are able to make a child abuse claim not only against the teacher who abused you but potentially but against the school or local authority itself as they employed the teacher and should have had safeguards in place to prevent child abuse from occurring.

There are numerous examples where the duty of care at schools has been breached in the most awful ways.  The end result can be staff members carrying out child abuse on a number of different levels:

• Bullying
• Emotional abuse
• Neglect
• Physical abuse
• Psychological abuse
• Sexual abuse

Understandably, not many child abuse victims come forward at the time of the child abuse for fear that the child abuse will become worse or that they will not be believed by those in Authority.

Many victims of child abuse at school will not report the child abuse for various reasons but just because a long time has passed, you can still make a child abuse claim so that you can seek the justice you deserve.  Time limits do exist to make child abuse claims but we can successfully pursue your claim regardless of the length of time which has passed.
